Tyson Fury Retires

[diddy]

At age 29. What a wanker.

[Covfefe]

He's 28 but I get your point.

He'll be on another comeback before Christmas.

[handsofstone]

UKAD or WADA or whoever it is, I'm not really clued up on that side of the sport but whoever is running this failed test saga needs shut down because they couldn't find their arse with both hands, even if Fury's 100% innocent I'm not surprised he's retired, a complete mess from all involved

I'm sure if it was Joshua who was under investigation then this whole shambles would've been over, guilty or innocent

[Nightmare Roy]

He retires every other week. Yawn.

[crusader]

He retires every other week. Yawn.

Exactly....the Fury stuff has become so boring. Even Hughie is more interesting now, which is saying something

[Lackeos]

It's a shame. He will be like the Ike Ibeabuchi or Riddick Bowe of this generation. Remove him from the mix, and the division is like 15% weaker. Really hurts the legacy of anyone like Anthony Joshua who loses the opportunity to fight and hypothetically beat him.

Who pulled up this post from 2015?

He couldn't dream of Riddick Bowe status.

Bowe couldn't dream of having Fury's superb defensive skills or retiring undefeated Heavyweight Champion... Bowe was a big galoot of a punching bag who dodged Lewis for years and then quit.. I loved his comeback fight against a Kickboxer who kicked the living crap out of him.

[Boxing Prospect]

Fury, Fuchigami and Uchiyama all retire on the same day

[lazboy]

A real shame, I hope he's ok. He would have given all the top heavyweights a go, if not beat them but he would have never beat













A keyboard warrior. We are to strong in number.

Respect for a great career, enjoy your retirement Uchiyama.

[ldlamb]

93 Bowe whips Fury.

[SaadOffTheDeck]

93 Bowe whips Fury.

Inside two rounds.

[Badhusker]

Good riddance.

[Tarkus]

I have concluded that lot of boxing fans are suffering from necrophilia. Some even jump on a bandwagon only after fighter dies. People just cant let go a rotting corpse. Fury retired two years ago and and it was clear already then that he isn't coming back ever. Let it go.

He still has been Ring Magazine heavyweight champion. He can retire and unretire all he wants. I just think it is ridiculous that a supposedly prestigious boxing magazine still considers him to be relevant.

... the Donald Trump of boxing ...

He couldn't dream of Riddick Bowe status.

Or even Ike status.

No doubt, what a mismatch. Fury would have less of a chance than McGregor.

[greg]

...he keeps changing his mind so frequently, it's difficult to take him seriously no matter what he says..

[Ossyrules]

From an objective point of view it's bad for the division. Heavy isn't stacked deep with opponents

The drugs investigation does seem inept so far. 2+ years in and the investigation still going...

Finally fury is an idiot and doesn't help himself. I think he is truly finished I don't expect to see him back

Why would he? Fury actually won the title. Also would be interesting to see how Bowe, the most overrated HW of all time, would handle that particular type foe.

Any day people will be posting footage of the pathetic clown waddling down the street saying, "I did this to myself, now I gotz to get me out of it." 48 hours or so later the same collection of Furyophytes will post 30 seconds of footage of the tub o' blub hitting the heavy bag and claiming he is back and fighting in October.

Next we will hear how Peter hopes to get Jabba down to 23 stone and that he plans on coming back with an immediate big fight.

[Enlightened-One]

Tyson Fury has "retired" multiple times in recent years, so there's no reason to believe that he is being sincere about his most recent announcement.
